Talk:Siemens star

Is it a Siemens star, or Siemens' star? As the article stands, the first sentence is not grammatically correct.--Srleffler 20:38, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

The article could use a description of how this figure is used to characterize resolution, etc.--Srleffler 03:34, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

How can siemens have invented the star in 1930 if he only lived from 1823 to 1883??

Origin of the name
The date of the developement of the star by Werner von Siemens is obviously wrong. By that time (1930) he had been dead for 38 years.
